STANTON - MORE DUCKLINGS
A short visit to Stanton Park today. Just meadow browns and ringlets around as far as butterflies are concerned, but I was pleased to find the pair of swans with one cygnet, as I hadn't seen them on my last couple of visits, I wasn't even sure if there were actually any cygnets this year! Also a mallard and a good sized brood of ducklings were seen, a goldcrest preening above my head and a heron.
